Chapter 126 Rat Mangweed.

One more is dead!

After Hua Lang and the others heard the news, they were all stunned, they thought that the murderer must be in Chunxiang Building, but they didn't expect that the murderer would commit a crime outside.

Last night, no one left Chunxiang Building, could it be that the murderer was not in Chunxiang Building?

Before he had time to think about it, Hua Lang asked the official to lead them to the scene of the crime, and on the way, Hua Lang asked the official about the situation.

"Early this morning, a husband came to Yamen to report that a corpse had been found on the corner of the street in the west of the city, and now Master Bao has brought someone over."

"Male corpse?"

"Male corpse!"

Without further ado, their group hurried to West Street.

When I arrived at West Street, most of the fog had dissipated, and I could see a group of people around from afar, making noise and talking, and several catchers were dispersing those people, Hua Lang and others came to the scene and saw a corpse, which Gongsun Ce was verifying at this time.

The corpse was a man, with a slender figure, and he looked quite handsome, but at this time, he was bleeding from his nine orifices, which was very terrifying.

After Gongsun Ce finished the examination, he got up and said: "The deceased was blue and black all over his body, his stomach was swollen, he vomited blood, and there was blood in **, I think he was poisoned by insects." ”

"So someone poisoned him?" Bao Zheng hurriedly asked.

Gongsun Ce smiled lightly: "This is not necessarily, depending on this person's situation, he seems to have drunk a lot of wine last night, if a poisonous insect flew into the wine and happened to be drunk by him, it is also possible." ”

Bao Zheng nodded slightly, expressing approval, he didn't want it to be murder.

But at this time, Hua Lang stood up and said: "I don't think this person died of insect poison, the deceased's lips were cracked, his teeth were blue and black, and his nine orifices were bleeding, I am afraid that he was poisoned by rat grass." ”

"Rat grass?" Gongsun Ce was taken aback, because he had studied medicine for many years, and he also knew the way of rat grass, but he didn't think of it just now.

Hua Lang nodded: "That's right, the poison of the rat grass is very similar to the insect poison, but it will bleed through nine orifices, but the insect venom does not bleed through nine orifices." ”

After listening to Hualang's words, Gongsun Ce suddenly came to his senses and said: "That's right, it's true, there are many rats in the south of the Yangtze River, and many people use rat grass to poison mice, and it is easy to get rat grass." ”

When Hua Lang said this, everyone's hearts were uneasy, if this person was a rat grass, then I am afraid it must be murder, after all, rat grass will not take the initiative to run into the wine glass of the dead like those poisonous insects.

There was nothing left to examine the body, so Bao Zheng asked people to draw portraits in order to find the deceased's family, and after doing so, Bao Zheng instructed: "Send someone to look around the neighborhood to see if anyone had seen the deceased last night, and who had been drinking with the deceased." ”

As soon as Bao Zheng finished speaking, Hua Lang stopped: "Brother Bao, after being poisoned by rat grass, it will take a day and a night to attack, I see that the deceased has been poisoned the night before yesterday, and if I want to find out the person who poisoned him, I am afraid that I will have to investigate whether anyone was with him the night before yesterday." ”

At this time, Gongsun Ce also hurriedly echoed: "Brother Hua is right, rat grass is used to poison mice, and the toxicity is not very strong, but if it is not dealt with in time, it will die after a day and a night." ”

Bao Zheng saw that both of them said this, so he sent someone to investigate who was with the deceased the night before.

And just when the officials had just carried the body into the county office, and Hualang and they were just about to enter the county office, a woman suddenly broke out and stopped them, the woman was in her thirties, crying so much, she knelt down for Bao Zheng, and said, "My lord, I ...... My husband is dead! ”

When everyone heard this, they were suddenly shocked, how could someone die again?

didn't have time to step into the county office, Bao Zheng immediately asked: "What's going on, where is your husband's body now?" ”

The woman wiped away her tears and said, "Early this morning, my husband suddenly fell ill, and then he didn't have time to urgently invite the doctor to come, he ...... And he died. ”

After listening to the woman's words, Bao Zheng asked, "How is your husband's usual health?" ”

The woman choked up a little and said, "My husband's body is usually very good, and he ...... And the symptoms of his death were exactly the same as those of those who died of the plague. ”

After listening to the woman's words, Bao Zheng didn't ask any more questions, and immediately went to the woman's house to check.

If the symptoms of the deceased are really the same as those of Chen Biao, then he must have been poisoned by the Golden Silkworm Gu, but has he ever been to Chunxianglou?

"Has your husband been to Chunxiang Building?" Halfway through, Hanarang suddenly asked.

When the woman heard this, her face changed suddenly, and she said, "My husband is a good man, he never goes to such a place, and he was with me last night. ”

The deceased had never been to Chunxiang Building, and he had been with his wife all night yesterday, so how could he be poisoned by the Golden Silkworm Gu, could it be that the poisoner who made trouble in Tianchang County was really not in Chunxiang Building?

Not long after, Bao Zheng and his party finally came to the woman's house, and at this time the woman's husband was lying on the bed, at a glance, his body was thin, yellow-white, his eyes were collapsed, his teeth were exposed, and the blisters on his skin had suppurated, which was the same as the symptoms of Chen Biao and others.

The woman saw that Bao Zheng and the others had been looking at the corpse for a while, so she hurriedly asked: "My lord, did my husband die of the plague, if he had the plague, would I be infected, and what are you going to do with my husband's corpse?" ”

The woman's worry was understandable, Bao Zheng shook his head: "There is no plague in our Tianchang County, those who died before and your husband were all poisoned by the Golden Silkworm Gu and died, and someone deliberately wanted to make our Tianchang County unpeaceful." ”

After listening to Bao Zheng's words, the woman was a little glad that it was not a plague, but when she thought that her husband died like this, she couldn't help crying.

At this time, Bao Zheng looked at the street with a dark face and said, "The truth of the matter must be told to the people, and the people must not be intimidated by the plague." After saying this, Bao Zheng looked at Hua Lang and said, "Brother Hua agrees?" ”

Hua Lang nodded slightly: "Naturally agree, now that we have been making trouble in Chunxiang Mansion all night, I am afraid that the murderer has already known that there are people in Tianchang County who are not plagues." ”

Bao Zheng was taken aback and said, "Listen to the meaning of Brother Hua's words, the murderer is from Chunxiang Building?" But this deceased has never been to Chunxiang Building? ”

Hua Lang smiled faintly: "This is just the murderer's desire to cover up, the murderer learned that we noticed Chunxiang Building, so he killed people outside, trying to divert our attention, but the murderer did a little clumsy, which made us even more suspicious." ”
